Middle School
Well it has been a term like no other. We would like to congratulate our middle students and their families. You have worked hard, stayed positive and helped to support each other and us. Well done to the middle students who have developed many new online skills and given their best.
We hope that you have time time to relax and enjoy the school holidays. Although you may not be able to go many places, there are still many fun things for you to do individually and as a family. Below are some ideas you may enjoy.
Have a lovely holiday and we look forward to another productive term 4.
Holiday ideas:
- Harry Potter and a History of Magic -
- Tour of Antarctic Dinosaurs -
- NASA virtual tours and videos -
- Melbourne Zoo tours and videos -
- Melbourne Aquarium live stream -
- Create a Frog Friendly Habitat in your Backyard (a great follow up to our term 3 inquiry focus)
- Make a Woven CD Sea Creature -

- Floor Chalk Games –
- Chalk can be used to design all sorts of games to play. Draw a wiggly line and play follow the line, design a chalk maze, write instructions eg spin / tiptoes, do a hopscotch and more.
- Spa Day –
- Fancy a pamper day? Put on some calming music or a nice film. Do some face masks with cucumber on those eyes. How about a foot soak while you read a magazine? Then there’s hand/foot massage followed by nail painting! Sounds like a lovely day!
- Butterfly Sun Catcher -
- We made a butterfly but really there’s no limit on what you make. First, draw a butterfly shape and then cut out the centre of the wings. Cut strips (or different shapes) of tissue paper (we only had blue but multicoloured would look great) then glue them to the back of the butterfly. Once complete trim around the edges to neaten it up. Once dry display in a window and enjoy.
